Does anyone know where I can get the H4 headlight bulb adapter rings? I have seen a link on Shop Talk to electrical connections, but they are sold out or on back order. A web address and/or part number would also be helpful.
Thanks,
Paul

Get them if you want, but the H4's with tabs cut work just fine in the IS fairing without them..... for thousands of miles.

Agreed, no need for the adapter. The spring holds the bulb tight.

I got the adapters.  But, no need for them.  Broke the two bottom tabs off, bulbs work fine.

They are on the shelf.  Do NOT waste your money. Save it for chrome!

Thanks everyone for the responces. I think I will just do the bulbs without the rings, there has to be some chrome out there that I need.  Smiley
